Yes, it still receives them.  The 4.0a2 release you are seeing is part of
an ongoing "refresh Zope2" effort, driven by the Plone community and
friends.  The 2.13.25 release you see in the docs hasn't yet been made:
your options to get to a supported state include a) running from the head
of the 2.13 branch (super stable at this point); or b) applying the
various hotfixes released by the Plone folks:
